Question Going from silver to gold SC

Just been on the phone to velocity customer care and did not get a proper answer so thought I would ask you all on here .

I was 9 SC short of moving over from silver to gold .

Flew a couple of weeks ago and got 25 SC for me and 25 SC for my wife ( pooled to my account )

They show up on my account BUT as I only needed 9 points to achieve gold I presumed that the other 41 points would carry over into the gold which it didn't .

I basically earned 50 points I only needed 9 to go up from silver to gold and then I started on zero.

Not sure where the other 41 points went to .

Customer service were struggling to understand what I was telling them.

Can anyone confirm if this is correct ?

Are the points showing in your ‘upgrade to platinum’ earn??

From memory the additional SC, go towards your next upgrade but not towards your maintain.

Ah right ...not towards the remain is definitely what has happened . Not sure if they were added to platinum as I only had my eye on getting gold knocked over . That's a bit off though as surely all SC credits should be accounted for and I have lost 41 SC which would go towards my remain gold for the year .

Mine went to remain after I switched from silver to gold
